Thematik

Give a chance to have more practice to solve problems in Biometrics using PC and the SPSS software in the computer room. This was a regular need of the students earlier since the special way how a MD should handle the typical medical problems (special way of thinking) was not founded by the secondary school education. This foundation is an important focus point of the Biometrics course. It seems, the weekly 1+1 lectures were not enough for most of the students for completing this important goal: To develop some brand new skills.
This course offers an organized way for that extra practices. It offers also some brushing up chances for those who has completed Biometrics earlier.
It is attached a ‘COVID-special’ block to every class material now. We study and analyze the data of the pandemic - based on the two new course goals. It demonstrates the power of data analysis to our professional and private life decisions. COVID pandemic – is a real hot issue, isn’t it?
We highly suggest students to join also to Introduction to BM course which covers the first 6 weeks topics of the Biometrics class contents. The Problem-solving BM class continues this covering Week7-Week12 topics.
